Calls are billed directly to the user's Go Card account at TeleBermuda's rates. There is no added fee for using the card. GO Card Ltd. vice president Joanne Chambers said the card will be useful for people who make business expense claims.

"We wanted to provide a service that allows people to place calls at reasonable rates but also lets them keep track of their calls by date, time and location,'' Ms Chambers said at a press conference.'' GO Card users will automatically receive their new card in the mail.
